    Al Farabi was a 1st century Muslim philosopher born in what is now Turkmenistan. He received an early education locally and then higher education in Baghdad, where he was greatly influenced by the philosophies of Aristotle and Plato. While agreeing with many of their philosophies, he also showed some objections and developed his own philosophical ideas. For example, unlike Aristotle, Al Farabi believed that becoming social was due to necessity rather than human nature. He also argued that heads of state should be allowed to accumulate personal wealth so they would rule with passion rather than obligation. In his philosophy, Al Farabi described different types of societies ranging from ideal intellectual societies to poor societies focused only on basic needs.
